David, if you decide to keep posting the above document to every thread, it is going to be deleted. It isn't appropriate to spam the forum with repeated content.

The VWMare add-on doesn't support current versions of VMWare and we are no longer selling this add-on unless someone absolutely needs to use it. This old add-on is discontinued.
If you would like Virtual Machine support, please look into purchasing Retrospect Virtual which is a complete solution for virtual environments.

Just a heads up that the forum may end up going offline temporarily.
We are in the process of doing a forum upgrade. We will bring it back online as fast as possible.
After the upgrade, the forum may look a little different, at least until we can reset the "skin" to bring it back to the original colors, etc.

The "What's New" documents and list of product changes can be found at:

You can view your upgrade options at http://www.retrospect.com/upgrade after you enter your license code.

I want to apologize to the user who created this thread. It clearly has gone off topic. Please email support if you want to work directly with support to address your product concerns.
David, please keep your forum posts to the topic and questions related to product troubleshooting. I am sure your fellow forum users are really not interested in the nuances of a wikipedia article that really doesn't address the original question.

> What you'll learn is that Retrospect Windows 8 and following are totally different "under the hood" than Retrospect Windows 7.7.
This is not true. Retrospect 8 for Macintosh is totally different from version 6.x and earlier for Macintosh. Retrospect 7.7 for windows and version 8 for windows share probably 99% of the same code.

Retrospect 7.7 does not support Windows 10. Using that older version with Windows 10 will result in dataloss when trying to get a complete backup of a Windows 10 operating system. Please contact support about upgrade options.

Besides this thread being pretty offensive with me being a target, the spam issues have been resolved. I am closing this thread. Please try to keep your forum posts on topic to solving Retrospect issues for other users.

>No updates during these five years?
That isn't what I said. Using the same forum software, and it is kept up to date to the best of my knowledge.
I have adjusted the forum spam filters to see if it helps.
